Tyler and Annie got married at the stunning and historic Sunnyside Farm in Hamilton, Virginia. The weather was perfect for an early October wedding. Thankfully we were blessed with a beautiful overcast day and not a single drop of rain!! It was an emotional and fun day all around. I loved how thoughtful Annie’s details were to her. She incorporated many family heirlooms and things her mother had given her, which made it extra special.

Austin and Sami’s central Virginia barn wedding was emotional (and fun!) from start to finish. Their family and bridal party welcomed me like I was one of their own from the very beginning.

The question most brides agonize over while planning their big day—should I do a first look with my groom?! If you ask me as a wedding photographer? ABSOLUTELY.

Planning your wedding day timeline can be stressful. Determining what to include and what not to is one of the major stressors of a bride. I'm here to tell you why it's important you add bride and groom sunset portraits to your wedding day timeline.

There is so much going on the week before your wedding. Finalizing the decorations, making sure everything is gathered in one easily accessible place, making sure none of the groomsmen show up late (lol). Here I am going to list a few things you should do the week before your wedding to make sure everything goes smoothly.

I am a Fredericksburg, Virginia Wedding Photographer here to share the things I have learned that will help you to make sure your best day ever goes off without a hitch!

Matt and Lindsey’s Virginia Farm wedding was absolutely perfect and as beautiful as their love story. There was not a single cloud in the sky all day and while it was a bit windy for late March we couldn’t have asked more more perfect weather. Matt and Lindsey’s first date was at a family game night and was basically a blind date. When Lindsey’s matron of honor/sister-in-law texted her the next day to see if she liked Matt, Lindsey and Matt were already hanging out (so I guess that was a yes)!

Tyler and Amber’s Lake Anna Engagement session holds a bit of a special place in my heart. This is my sister and her FIANCE! These two have been in front of my camera literally since I got my first one. They’ve evolved with me from photography as a hobby to photography as a business. More importantly, though, I’ve gotten a front row seat to watch their love grow.
